At this time, Li Zhi was already a little difficult to suppress his excitement.

With generators and electric motors, Datang's industrial development will enter the era of electricity.

Not only can the steam engine, which is now being used in large quantities, be phased out, but it will also bring great benefits to the metalworking industry.

With electricity, electrolytic aluminum can be produced, and with electrolytic aluminum aluminum can be developed, aluminum alloys can be developed.

With aluminium alloys, high-performance metal components can be manufactured.

These components are used not only in large quantities in the power industry, but also in the manufacture of machine tools and engines.

Once there is an electric machine tool, the industrial processing accuracy of Datang will be greatly improved.

And in this way, the guns and cannons that Li Zhi longed for for a long time had a basis for mass manufacturing.

Li Zhi stayed in prison for a whole day.

He gave Yan Lide and others the task of manufacturing guns and cannons, and gave instructions on the future development direction of electricity.

Then he ran to the academy outside the city to find Li Su.

Let him send people to the ironmaking workshop in Jiangzuojian and the west of the city to solve the process problems of electrolytic aluminum and electrolyzed water.

Once the problem of water electrolysis is solved, it can not only greatly accelerate the efficiency and stability of steelmaking, but also improve the efficiency of oil smelting.

After doing this, Li Zhi locked himself at home, and kept writing books every day in addition to eating.

Now that he has electricity, he has to gradually dig out the little university knowledge he has left in his head.

Today, there are more than 6,000 people who have received modern knowledge education, including the general prison, the young government supervisor, and the academy outside the city.

These people may not seem like a lot, but they can spread out most of the research directions of physics and chemistry.

When these people have achieved a certain level of achievement, they can teach more people to learn.

Li Zhi believes that it will not be long before the students of Datang will gradually accept his doctrine.

At that time, the system of electing officials for the imperial examinations, which is now dominant, will be gradually eliminated.

Those who still have a monopoly on educational resources will soon lose this advantage.

While Li Zhi was busy with this, he was completely unaware of a woman who was once famous in history, and his appearance had completely changed his fate.

In a mansion in Wenshui, Bingzhou, there was a burst of yin and yang strange shouting and scolding from time to time.

And in a wing room in the backyard of this mansion, a mother and daughter were hugging each other and crying quietly.

"Such a big girl didn't say that she quickly found someone to marry, but she spent all day in the house learning some useless piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.

What's the use of learning all these things?

Last time, His Majesty went to Luoyang Palace, and he didn't take advantage of such a good opportunity, and he didn't know what else to do? ”

The sound from outside the wing room came into the room like nothing, making the little girl in the room cry and secretly clench her pink fists.

The sound outside did not actually come from the backyard, but from the guest hall located in the middle courtyard.

This mansion is the ancestral residence of Wu Shitong, the former governor of Jingzhou, located in Tianshui.

The person who spoke at this time was the little girl's half-brother Wu Yuanqing.

And the mother and daughter crying in the backyard are the only generation of empress Wu Zetian and her biological mother in history.

Wu Yuanqing's voice fell, and immediately another voice said: "I think there was a fortune teller back then who said that she had the appearance of an emperor."

Now that I think about it, it's just a pretense and I don't know what to do.

In my opinion, this girl looks like a disaster, and it is better to find someone to marry out quickly. ”

This person is Wu Zetian's second brother Wu Yuanshuang, and both of them spoke loudly, obviously deliberately letting the mother and daughter in the wing room hear it.

The two of them just shook Wu Zetian's mother and daughter at dinner.

At this time, he was sarcastic here, obviously not wanting the two to have a good time at home.

The biological mother of the two died early, and now the main mother of the family is the Yang family, whom Wu Shitong later married.

The Yang family was originally from a noble family, and he was not bad to these two brothers before.

When Wu Shitong was alive, the two brothers behaved fairly well in front of the Yang family.

But since Wu Shitong's death the year before last, the two brothers' attitude towards Wu Zetian's mother and daughter has become worse and worse.

The two have been trying to get the mother and daughter out of the mansion by themselves.

The Yang family in the house was very sad to see that the two children he was pulling with one hand actually treated him like this.

At this time, she was crying, but she was still comforting Wu Zetian.

"Don't listen to your two brothers' nonsense, I think they are also a little anxious because your father has just passed away."

Although Wu Zetian is young, since she can become a generation of empresses, how can she be so easy to deceive?

I only heard her speak: "Mother, you and I are just outsiders in this family after all.

What does it matter to our father if they treat us badly?

The daughter heard that her father had a good relationship with the governor Shi Li Ji before his death, so it is better for you and my mother and daughter to go to him. ”

Yang sighed and said, "You and my mother and daughter are both women, and they don't have any special skills.

Wouldn't rushing to others be a drag on people in vain? ”

Wu Zetian opened his mouth and said: "Although my daughter has no power to restrain chickens, she can do laundry and cooking, and female red weaving can also be done.

I only asked him to arrange a place for my mother and daughter, who believed that she would be able to support her mother. ”

Yang sighed and said, "How can you be dragged down by your mother now?

If you really don't want to stay at home and be angry, then your mother will give up a piece of face and repair a book for you.

You can take it with you and go to Lord Li Ji on your own. ”

After listening to Yang's words, Wu Zetian spoke: "How can the mother stay here alone and her daughter feel at ease?

It's better to go with me, my daughter won't let her mother be wronged. ”

Yang said: "Mother will take care of herself, you don't need to worry about me.

No matter how much you two brothers are bastards, they don't dare to embarrass me, the Duchess of the country. ”

Wu Zetian cried and said: "How the two of them treat you, my daughter doesn't know, why should my mother lie to me?"

If the mother refuses to go with her daughter, then she will simply die, so that she will not suffer this humiliation in this world. ”

After listening to Wu Zetian's words, the Yang family was suddenly frightened.

She hugged Wu Zetian into her arms and said, "Silly child, how can you have such a terrible thought?

If you die, how will your mother survive? ”

Wu Zetian cried in Yang's arms: "My sister has already been married, and my sister has died early.

If the mother refuses to leave with her daughter, how can she rest assured? ”

Yang hugged Wu Zetian and wiped his tears, then sighed and said, "Okay, my mother will go with you."

If you are lucky enough to be taken in, your mother will wait for you to find another place to live after you get married. ”

After listening to her words, Wu Zetian wanted to open his mouth to persuade again.

But thinking of the coming day, Fang Chang should leave here first at this time.

So he hurriedly urged his mother to pack her bags and prepare to go to Li Ji.
